Well, John, here is someone else with a link to Mitiamo. I have a total of EIGHT births there between 1885 and 1939. The earliest is Helen Catherine ('Nell' ) Peters, born Mitiamo 29 March 1885, followed 2 years later by her sister Rachel Olive Peters. Then there is a gap until the birth in 1910 of Maude Euta Hopper. The rest of the births are of people still living in the area (or a bit south) so I won't name them here. I reckon that my eight births over 54 years pretty well amounts to a population explosion in Mitiamo! Trevor

I've got some too - Charlotte Mary Evans born Mitiamo in 1877. Thomas Richard Pittaway b.1918 d. 1919 Mitiamo.
